Xenoblade Chronicles X The Repair Job Affinity quest guide
Posted on 6 months ago by Ethan in Guides, Switch | 0 comments
A few days back, we reported on The Repair Job, one of Xenoblade Chronicles X’s most egregious affinity quests. It’s particularly troublesome if you accept it as soon as it becomes available – at that point, you likely won’t have many probes placed around Mira. The first half of this quest is straightforward: talk to an NPC and then head to Starfall Basin to search the White Whale debris for specific parts. Once you return to the West Gate, you’ll be given the option to agree with Lin (the mechanical error should be fixed) or Tatsu (you want to stop working and get something to eat). The scene frames Lin as the one in the right, so we’d imagine many players chose to sympathize with her. And if you do, the quest becomes a bit more complicated.
